KNOWLES: Thank you. Any discussion by the Commissioners—any questions? [None] Okay, <br /> then we'll move ahead, and I'd like to ask for a motion. <br /> VITOUSEK: I move that the petition for standing in a contested case hearing followed by Kohala <br /> Makani Kai, LLC in Agenda Items 1 and 2 be granted. <br /> KNOWLES: Can I have a second? <br /> DELA CRUZ: Second. <br /> KNOWLES: Thank you, Commissioner Dela Cruz. I'd like to call for a roll call vote. <br /> JACKSON: Commissioner Vitousek? <br /> VITOUSEK: Aye. <br /> JACKSON: Commissioner Dela Cruz? <br /> DELA CRUZ: Aye. <br /> JACKSON: Commissioner Paishon-Duarte? <br /> PAISHON-DUARTE: Aye. <br /> JACKSON: And Vice Chair Knowles? <br /> KNOWLES: Aye. <br /> JACKSON: Okay, motion carries, four-zero. <br /> KNOWLES: Thank you so much. Seeing as the motion is carried, I think the next order of <br /> business for us is to determine who will conduct the contested case hearing. Our rules give us <br /> several options: the first option is that the Commission as a whole hears the contested case; the <br /> second option is that the Commission designates one or more members to act as hearing officers; <br /> and the third option is the Commission hires a hearing officer to conduct the hearing. Please keep <br /> in mind that even if the hearing is conducted by a hearings officer and not by the Commission as a <br /> whole, the final decision on the applications will be made by the Commission at a public hearing <br /> based on the case record and hearing officer's recommendation. I'd like to now ask the <br /> Commissioners for a motion on who should conduct the contested case hearing. <br /> VITOUSEK: I move that the Commission hire a hearings officer to conduct a contested case <br /> hearings for PL-SMA-2022-000018 and PL-SPP-2022-000018. <br /> KNOWLES: Thank you. Do I have a second on that motion? <br /> PAISHON-DUARTE: Second. <br /> 16 <br /> EXHIBIT B <br />
